Pitchmark Recruit Blanchard

Pitchmark is delighted to announce the appointment of Dave Blanchard as Business Development Manager. Dave will continue to be responsible for growing the Pitchmark brand within the UK and overseas markets, and will help with the evolution of Pitchmark’s ambitions.

“We’re delighted to have Dave on board,” said Mark Rodman, Pitchmark MD. “He’s highly regarded and respected within the sports turf industry and his vision aligns with ours.”

Pitchmark has enjoyed an excellent relationship with Dave in his previous role for a few years now, investing heavily in manufacturer support to his customer base.

“Dave has been integral in the development of the Pitchmark brand within the UK and so when we became aware that Dave was leaving his previous role, we had to make a leap to sign him up,” Mark added.

“Dave’s appointment further strengthens our position in a very competitive industry and enables us to focus on servicing some of the world’s finest ground staff. Groundsmen are under increasing pressure to deliver the perfect surface and we believe calling upon the expertise of the manufacturer directly will assist them in achieving their goals.”

On his new position, Dave said: “I’d been in my previous role for 17 years so whilst deciding my future wasn’t an easy process, I’m very confident joining Pitchmark was the right choice. I felt their offer best mirrored my ambitions for the future.”
